Creative, imaginative, high quality Mark at Little Gem Creative has done the design and printing for the major new exhibition at Hallaton Museum for the 2022 season. The outcome is fantastic, very creative, imaginative and high quality. He produced the main banners of the display, posters and templates for use in our communications, social media etc.
The response from our visitors has been very positive. It's definitely got the 'wow' factor! An excellent service, all delivered to schedule. We would definitely recommend. Thank you.

It was a pleasure to work with Little Gem Creative on a recent infographics project. The creative supplied matched the brief and was consistently high quality. The project was completed on time, within agreed budget and was well received. I look forward to working with Little Gem Creative again in the future.

Mark has just completed my tuition website and I'm thrilled to bits with the final outcome. Mark listened to my initial ideas and has produced a very high quality professional dynamic product with stunning graphics. The final outcome definitely fits the brief and more! I can't rate Mark highly enough for the amazing service he has provided during this time.

Little Gem creative were able to work with my ideas / brief to put together a timeless logo for us. Mark was able to turn the project around for us very quickly as we were waiting on our logo to finish our website. Would recommend and look forward to working together again on other branded projects .

Mark from Little Gem Creative was tasked with developing our company's image here at SAAT Medical. He has produced outstanding work with regards to our logo, branding and website and we have received numerous positive feedback from individuals outside our organisation. LGC is great to work with and take the time to understand individual business needs. I look forward to developing the next stages of our ongoing projects with LGC and feel the name should read 'hidden gem'!

Mark listened carefully to my initial ideas for my new business Nellie's Arts offering many helpful ideas and suggestions. He then went on to design an elephant logo which was beautifully designed and I was really pleased with. Mark also designed flyers for my pottery parties and a colourful brochure for schools. I was very impressed by the service I received and the final results were excellent. I would recommend Little Gem Creative to anyone needing a designer. Nikki McCathie from Nellie's Arts
